Millwall form and stats
Millwall have played 8 Championship games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-2-2 (wins-draws-losses). Millwall has recorded two wins in a row here at The Den, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.
A nice win for Millwall last time playing, versus Reading. That was also a home game and the match ended 1-0 with Benik Afobe scoring for the victors. Benik Afobe, who usually plays near the opponent's goal, was the declared top performer for the side in that match, collecting a rating of 8.01 (out of 10). Afobe scored one goal.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Huddersfield Town (0-1).The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Millwall matches with similar probabilities have ended with one win, one draw and zero defeats (from two games).
Millwall are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 9 goals in 8 games. On the other hand, Millwall have conceded 8 goals.
Derby County form and stats
There's been little loot from Derby County's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 8 away games in the Championship. Derby County only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 3 draws.
It might be tough going out on the road again for County, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-2 versus Barnsley (placed 22nd). Midfield player Max Bird was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.91/10. Bird hit five key passes and had 44 successful passes (of 51 total).
A 1-2 loss hosting Blackburn Rovers before that.Looking at the earlier recent performances of County when being an outsider away as they are today, we find five matches with the visitors losing two times, drawing one and winning two games.
County are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 4 goals from 8 away games. It's worth mentioning that 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 8 goals have been conceded by County in these games.
Head 2 Head
